Somebody has written the following about the
girls, and set it a do at on the sea of riewspaperdom
God bless the girls,
Whose golden curls
Blend with our evening dretinns;
They haunt our lives
Like spirit wives,
Or—as naiads haunt the streams.
They soothe our pains,
They fiti our brains
With dreams of sualmer hours;
God bless the girls,
God bless their curls,
God bless our Minion flowers.
The wives, we think, are quite as deserving as
the girls--therefor a the following is respectfully
submitted :
God bless the wives,
They fill our hives
With little bees and honey;
They ease life's !hocks,
They wend our socks,
But—don't they spend the money !
When we are sick;
They heal us quick—
Thit! ia, if they love us;
If not, we die, _
And yet they cry
And place tombstones above tie.
Of roguish girls, .
With sunny curls,
Ve may in fancy dream ;
But wives—true wives—
. Throughout our lives,
• Are everything they seem.
I BIRTH 1;1 7 TRIBUTE.
BY C. W. HOLMES
We iwill not speak of years to-night;
For what have years to bring,
But larger floods of love and light
And sweeter songs to sing ?
We will not drown in wordy praise
The kindly thoughts that rise;
If friendship owns one tender phrase,
He reads it in odr eyes.
We need not waste our schoolboy art
To gild tt is notch of time;
Forgive.me, it my wayward heart
Has throbbed in artless rhyme.
Enough for him the silent grasp
That limns us hand in hand,
And he the bracelet's radiant clasp
That lochs our circling hand.
Strength to his hours of manly toil ! "
Peace to hisstsrin dreams!
Who loves alike the furrowed soil,
Tin music haunted streams!
Easteet.smiles to keep forever bright
The sunshine on his lips,
And faith, that sees the ring of light
Round .Nature's last eclipse !
The Age of our Earth.
Among the astoundlug discoveries of mod
ern licieiwe, is that sf•the immense periods
that have passed in the gradual formation of
the-earth—Bo-vast-was—the—cycles — of — the
time proceeding even the appearance of man
on the surface of our globe, that our period
seems as yesterday when compared with the
epochs that have gone before it. Had we
only the evidence of the deposits of rocks
heaped above each other in regular strata by
the slow accumulation of materials, they a
lone would convince us of the long and slow
maturing of God's work on earth; but when
we add to_these the successive populations
of whose life this world has been the theatre
and whose remains arc hidden in the rocks

ever kind on which they lived, has harden

these records of the past, the intellect fails

The most eloquent voice yet imbed against
a dishoneraele peace , and the machinations
of traitors at hoine, is that of the Forty

the address printed below, which was adopt
ed with 'startling unanimity,every officer
and soldier present in the regiment subscri
bing his name to it with enthusiaotio earn
estness.
The words are few,bUt well chosen, vigor.
ens and pregnant with truth. These men
have a right thus to speak—their battles,
their bravery', their discipline and their
honorable scars, entitle them to a hearing .
Let no one fail to read this stirring. appea
in favor of the war, by those who are fight

their heads for shame to be thus rebuked by
patriots like these.

York. • •
We can no longer keep silent. A sacred
devotion to our country, an ardent lov for
our homes, and above all, an abiding fa i - h in
God, bids us speak. For nearly two ears
we have suffered nil things, perilled all
things, endured all things, for the sake of
our common country. We have left our
ustness, our in , re , , our nen' s, '0 're
side of our youth, the sacred places of prayer
and all the nearest and dearest relations' of
life to serve our country. We have endured
hunger, thirst, cold and heat. By day and
by night we have borne the weight of our
knapsacks and the weariness of the march.
We have worked late and, early in the
trenches; we have bivouehed in the swamps
we have suffered sickness in the hospitals;
we have not been spared from "the pestilence
that walketh in darkness," nor from "the
destruction that .wasteth at noonday." We
have never shiunk from duty, but rather
have again and again cheerfully sought death
even at the cannon's mouth, to save our U
nion from destruction; our homes from dis
grace, and you and your children from eter
nal shame. '
When we came to the field we came with'
your blessing. You told us to go—that Goa
would be with us, and that your most fet
vent prayers should follow us.—Encouraged
by your words of patriotism, of hope, of faith
we came to the • war.—After suffering alas
much in behalf of you and your children
- he nation's honor, dear alike to us all,
will you withhold from us 123 W your sympa
thy and support? Will you join with those,
worse than traitors, at the North, who cry
"Peace" when they know there is no peace,
nor can be none till this unholy rebellion is
crushed? Wilt you ally yourselves with
those who, by words of discourageme,ut, are
prolonging this war, and who are thus be
coming in the sight of both Heaven and
earth, the insidious murderers of your sons
and brothers here in the field? Why should
you, who suffer none of the dangers, none of
the privations of the field or camp, be less
patriotic, less faithful, less hopeful,. less con
fident hr God and the holy cauo in which
we are engaged, than we who endure all ?

Amotig the many methods which were
tried to - induce men to enlist during the Rev
olutionary War, the following furnishes a
very successful one,, and gives a partial de
monstration of the fighting qualities of. the
captain : .
During the Revolutien, Captain E— a
member of one of the first families of Charles
ton, haling lost, in a skirinish, nr3st of, his
Inez, went into the interior of South Caroli
na for the purpose of enlisting recruits.—
:Having appointed a rendezvous, be spent a
day or two in looking about the country.--
At the time and place appointed, he found
a large number' assembled, not one of, whom
would enlist. After some hours spent to no
purpose, he appointed a rendezvous for the
next day, and left the ground. Next day
came, and with it the same crowd, bit he
:ne t t with no more success than the day be
fore. What could the matter be I it was
the first time during the war that ti recrui
ting officer had been so unsuccessful. Some
thing must be wrong, and he determined to
know what it was. Calling one of the rus
tics aside, he then said :
"Why is it I get no recruit's 7"
"You don't think," said the countryman,
"that we are going to 'list under such a look
ing man as you are You are dtessed too
ue to se mac o ater.
In those days knee Creeches and silk stock
ings wore fashionable, and the captain was
dressed in that style; there lay his unpopu
larity. Be turned to the countryman, and
remarked :
"$o you object to my dress, do you 7
lOonoe here to-morrow, and I shall have re
cruits."
Next day the same crowd had assembled,
anxious to know what idea the dandy cap
tain had got into his head. After the crowd
had assembled, Captain E— stepped out
and said, in a clear and distinct voice :
"My friends, I understand that you ob
ject to me because I am dressed a !ittle finer
than yourselves. You think I am unable
to fight on that account. I will whip us ma
' ny of you as will come, out, one at a time,
with the understanding that every wan is
•to enlist after he is whipped. Pick your
men and send them out.'
After some consultation„ a hug e, 'broad
shouldered fellow came out. T he Captain
iff.his-coat-very-c ark
and well made, and a superior boxer The
countryman rushed up, intending to brush
out the captain in a few moments. He mis
took his man, however, and soon measured
hielength upon the grass.. A greater bully
than the first stepped out to take his place,
and soon took his place on the ground. The
countryman stared ; they had no idea that
such a man could fight; he had,..however, en
listed two men, and must not be allowed to
go further. he'bully of the crowd now
stepped in to take the gentleman in hand.—
lie was a stout fellow, weighing about 200
pounds, and bragged that he had never been
whipped. lie knew nothing, however, about
sparring, and he very soon followed his com
panions. Never was a crowd so utterly con
founded; three of' their best men whipped
by a man from the city ! They could hard
ly-realize it, and stood motionless.
±-W-ell r my-friends r are—you—satisfied ? I
have whipped three of your best men. I
suppose you have no objection now to follow
their example ?"
"Not a bit of it," responded the crowd.
"You'll do to tie to, old fellow 1 Come

They did so, and in a short time the cap
tain had his company filled, and ho had 41-
fern of more. than lie could find room for.
